Abstract

The South Caucasus has been largely absent in broader discussions of prehistoric population aggregation in Greater Eurasia. The authors use remote sensing, surface collection and magnetometry to investigate two hilltop fortress settlements at the margins of the Kura River Basin, with a particular emphasis on satellite settlements around the main hills. The results support a model of settlement growth in which previously mobile groups settled around the fortress, while maintaining a degree of spatial and social separation. The use of multiple survey techniques reveals a complex picture of settlement organisation, with implications for comparative analysis of prehistoric population aggregation models. Keywords: South Caucasus, Late Bronze Age, Iron Age, UAV, magnetometry, Introduction The study of population aggregation processes has been an enduring focus for archaeological research on complex societies. Recent work has documented a remarkable diversity in the spatial and social [...]

21. A Remote Sensing Model of Herd Movement in Upper Mesopotamia during the Early Bronze Age

Abstract

For millennia, wool constituted a significant component of Mesopotamian economies. It was a measure of currency and was collected as tax. As a commodity, the production of wool affected labor relations, gender dynamics and other sectors of socio-economic life. Especially in the third millennium, the transition from flax to wool resulted in the organization of many institutional workshops, and textiles were produced in very high quantities. Therefore, as bearers of the wool, sheep were fundamental agents in Mesopotamian life. For instance, in Ebla, a third millennium city-state in Upper Mesopotamia, some herds reached 67,000 heads. In Presargonic Nabada (Tell Beydar), a single shepherd managed a herd of up to 300 sheep –an indication of grand number of animals. The sheep was also a mobile agent and its movement between the settlement and open pasture was frequent. In fact, the archaeology of the mid-to-late Early Bronze Age Upper Mesopotamia provides ample evidence for the impact of herd movement on the landscape. Aerial and satellite imagery reveal ancient paths radiating from EBA settlements that terminate after several kilometers. It has been hypothesized that the controlled and constant movement of herds heavily contributed to the formation of route systems (also called hollow-ways). This study presents the results of conducts a multi-spectral satellite data analysis of hollow-ways and models the soil compaction, vegetation productivity, and moisture retention capacities of modern soils as proxy variables for the impact of animal movement. The model highlights spectral differences between different roads and differentiates between potential traffic variations. In turn, in the absence of archaeological and epigraphical data, the variation map indicates detects sub-regions of Upper Mesopotamia with higher pastoral activities.

22. Remote Sensing of Ancient Paths: A Case Study from the Middle East

Author

Kalayci Tuna

Abstract

This study focuses on Early Bronze Age movement network in Upper Mesopotamia and in particular aims to investigate differential movement practices which lasted half a millennium. The main hypothesis of the study is that variations in the movement levels must have differentially changed soil physical characteristics (e.g. soil compaction/moisture) so that differences in traffic is potentially detectable on satellite data. As for the methodology, publicly available satellite sensor data (panchromatic and multispectral) are exploited to generate proxy variables of ancient movement, mainly in the form of soil and vegetation indices. Index values from ancient paths are cross-compared with areas which must have faced no traffic so that a relative traffic metric can be estimated. The model, in return, differentiates between high and low traffic carrying roads. As for the secondary aim, the study investigates sensor data in time-series form and intends to understand the spectral response of linear archaeological features under differential climatic conditions., 747493 — GeoMOP — H2020-MSCA-IF-2016

25. A Remote Sensing Approach for Exploring Ancient Traffic

Author

Kalayci Tuna

Abstract

Ancient landscapes of movement are challenging to conceptualize. Moving agents did not leave much material evidence behind other than their continuous use of pathways and roadways –unless the road was intentionally built. Under special morphological conditions, this repetitive practice carved the landscape in such a way that the proof of past movements survived until today. In one of these cases, the Early Bronze Age road network in Upper Mesopotamia provides ample evidence for a reconstruction of landscapes of movement. In realization of this opportunity, this study aims to explore ancient traffic through satellite remote sensing. Particularly, the study pushes the agenda for not only mapping the road network, but also understanding the volume of traffic. To accomplish this, the methodology relies on Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) data for the investigation of the relationship between soil compaction and vegetation health. It is hypothesized that variations in the ancient traffic differentially changed soil physical characteristics so that past variation is still detectable in modern environmental data, albeit only through the study of proxy variables. Comparison of NDVI values over the Early Bronze Age roads suggests differential use. Results of the study also open a new research avenue for studying the morphology of ancient roads with the same proxy data.

Abstract

This study investigates the relationship between rainfall variation and rain-fed agricultural production in Upper Mesopotamia with a specific focus on Early Bronze Age urban settlements. In return, the variation in production is used to explore stability of urban settlement systems. The organization of the flow of agricultural goods is the key to sustaining the total settlement system. The vulnerability of a settlement system increases due to the increased demand for more output from agricultural lands. This demand is the key for the success of urbanization project. However, without estimating how many foodstuffs were available at the end of a production cycle, further discussions on the forces that shaped and sustained urban settlement systems will be lacking. While large scale fluctuations in the flow of agricultural products between settlements are not the only determinants of hierarchical structures, the total available agricultural yield for each urban settlement in a hierarchy must have influenced settlement relations. As for the methodology, first, Early Bronze Age precipitation levels are estimated by using modern day associations between the eastern Mediterranean coastal areas and the inner regions of Upper Mesopotamia. Next, these levels are integrated into a remote-sensing based biological growth model. Also, a CORONA satellite imagery based archaeological survey is conducted in order to map the Early Bronze Age settlement system in its entirety as well as the ancient markers of agricultural intensification. Finally, ancient agricultural production landscapes are modeled in a GIS. The study takes a critical position towards the traditionally held assumption that large urban settlements (cities) in Upper Mesopotamia were in a state of constant demand for food. The results from this study also suggest that when variations in ancient precipitation levels are translated into the variations in production levels, the impact of climatic aridification on ancient settlement systems becomes less visible in the archaeological record.
